Introduction

The genus Arboridia Zachvatkin, 1946 belongs to the tribe Erythroneurini of subfamily Typhlocybinae with Typhlocyba parvula Boheman, 1845 as its type species. Arboridia consists of two subgenera, Arboridia Zachvatkin and Arborifera Sohi & Sandhu, and includes more than 60 described species distributed throughout the Oriental and Palaearctic regions. Various species of the genus have been reported as pests of grape, cherry, hawthorn, pear, peach, apple, mulberry, maple, woodbine, dogwood, and several other plants. However, so far, just two species of this genus have been reported in China. In the present work, nine new species and a new record are described and illustrated with a key to known species from China. Materials studied in this paper are deposited in the Institute of Entomology, Guizhou University, China (GUGC).
